Volume Calculation Guidelines

Typical Safety Margins:
• Mobile equipment: 15-20%
• Industrial systems: 20-25%
• Critical applications: 25-30%
Reservoir sizing: 3-5x pump flow (GPM)
Volume Conversions:
• 1 gallon = 3.785 liters
• 1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
• 1 cubic foot = 7.48 gallons
Note: Add 10-15% for thermal expansion
